TOO SHORT, TOO SLOW, TOO THIN, CAN'T KICK.

I was going to start this topic by going through all the list and selecting the players that are deficient in at least one of these facets.

No. Let's make it easy. Let's pick the players on our list who DO NOT have these flaws.

I did not find a single player on our list. I am welcome to hear arguments in favour of Frawley and Sylvia. Maybe they do have all round skills and are physically strong, but they were two of the biggest culprits today with their lack of leadership.

We are a team of boys, massively underdone, and the fault lies with everyone at the club; the players who don't work on their weaknesses, the recruiters who picked underdeveloped kids, and the coaching staff who fail to prepare them for AFL football.

Todays despicable effort was due to a series of poor decisions, both short term and over several years, that gave the club it's darkest day. That includes the woeful effort by Casey Scorpions.

But wait - there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Jack Viney will toughen us up. All 178 cms and 77 kilos of him. That will make those skinny guys at Geelong and Collingwood shudder!!!!

Give me a break.

 

A lot of AFL players are deficient in one of those areas. The main thing is when you don't work hard enough and don't put in enough you will look deficient. We didn't have any problems against Freo or Adelaide.

  • PREVIEW: Brisbnae

    They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
